Re: Problem in 2948g switch
Yes, it does defeat the purpose of a Layer 3 switch. But according to the post, the user/customer isn't using layer 3 technologies. In most cases, customers buy Layer3 switches not understanding the capabilities of them and want to use them as a regular switch. To do so, all the ports need to be within the same bridge group. Again, here is a link on how to approach configuring the 2948G-L3 switch. http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/l3sw/2948g-l3/rel_12_0/7wx51 5a/config_g/intfc_cg.htm Also notice under the section Additional Configurations on the Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet Interfaces, that Cisco states "... can configure the Fast Ethernet and the Gigabit Ethernet ports into a bridge group, which is the recommended configuration, or use the ports as router interfaces." To fix the Microsft Browsing Service problems that could be introduced within a switched environment is a whole other topic. Hopefully, this clears up any questions that people may have.

Re: Problem in 2948g switch
Whoa! Doesn't bridging defeat the purpose of buying a layer 3 switch? I'd only recommend that as a last resort. Get off of Netbeui if you're using it, and go with IP and WINS. I think this should fix your problem. This might not fix the problem with MS's crappy Master browser process, but some creative IP helper statements should help there.

Re: Problem in 2948g switch
The problem you are having is very common with the 2948G-L3. The reason your config doesn't work on the L3 Switch and works on a L2 Switch is that the L3 Switch is more like a 48 Port Router. Each Port is "individual". What I mean is that you need to create a bridge group and assign all the ports to that specific bridge group. Here is a link to a Cisco web-site that gives you a sample config. http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/l3sw/2948g-l3/rel_12_0/7wx51 5a/config_g/bridging.htm#23388 Just follow the example on Configuring Bridging. This should solve your problem. Hope that Helps. Regards, Don Orlik Technical Consultant ArQana Technologies Inc.
